Work is complete on the sand trap in front of the green on the 8th hole. Many golfers have commented that the new trap and surrounding area will be easier to play from in some ways and more difficult in others. Of course, the idea is to avoid it altogether!

Here are some pictures of the construction process:

Moving soil and compacting

The new banks are sodded

The sand has arrived!

Once the sod has fully rooted, this trap will be open for business. Currently, it is still marked Ground Under Repair so golfers can take a free drop if they enter the area.
